I love this book. It’s third in the series but it’s been so well written that can be read as a stand alone. But, I recommend starting at the beginning of the series. You will enjoy each book so much better!! Misty is sent to a ghost town where there are no more ghost tours. The ghosts have disapperpared. Plus, her new position as keeper has her investigating a cold case – a murder case from 150 years ago. Aunt June and John Smith return in this book to give her advice…or not.
Entertaining!
Another assignment for Misty: why have the ghost tours stopped? And she also has to solve an old murder, an ice cold case. And who is after her now?
This is such an enjoyable series! I love Misty and I love Aunty June! A story full of fun and suspense!
Misty is sent on a new job assignment for her magazine to find out why the ghost tours have stopped in Morpeth. She also gets notified that her first assignment as “the keeper” is to find out who killed Morgan Baxter over 150 years ago. As she became the new keeper she has gotten the ability to see and sense spirits. When she begins her investigations, she is almost run down by a car. Now she needs to add who is trying to kill her and why to her schedule. As she gets closer to the answers, she has more attempts on her life as well. Good thing the sexy and mysterious John Smith shows up just in time to help her. As its getting harder to be around his sexiness, she begins to improve on her sleuthing skills. I enjoyed this book a lot because it is well written, less history facts and the characters are very interesting. I certainly recommend this book and am looking forward to book #4 !
This is the third and final book in a boxset, His Ghoul Friday.
I enjoy this series so much. Misty Friday is a witch. The author doesn’t make it all cutesy twitching nose, ( I love Bewitched but those of us old enough to have watched know it was cute), to make funny situations. She teaches me, in a very fun way, new things and speaks of things I already know. She keeps it interesting while keeping it comfortable and wraps it up in a an entertaining package. Every book I have read in the series has been fun to read. The mysteries are not too easy or hard and I am surprised by them. The books can be read on their own because each main mystery is solved but because there is a mystery that carries from book to book, (no major cliffhangers just something mysterious for Misty that we learn about as she does), it is best to read this in order. I find each book surprises me by being better than the previous one. A possible love interest is back. I’m enjoying that exploration so far. I really like the pacing of it. Cordelia and my favorite Aunty June are back. I liked seeing more of Cordelia in this book. I’m really kind of suspicious of Skinny. I just get a vibe from her. I’m ready for book four, Make Some Magic.

Misty has bills to pay, a job as a reporter with a paranormal magazine, a good friend from work, and the boss from The Pit. The assignment is to write and send photos of ghosts in Morpeth but it soon gets more complicated when a secretive Ghost Tour guide tasks her with finding the murderer of Baxter Morgan. And then there’s the disappearing bookstore. And the odd timing of visits by Auntie June. And the attempts on her life. And investigating different necromancy cults. And, of course, the laughs! Another super book!
You know some laughs are coming when right away the main character is calling her boss skinny behind her back. The supple hilarious comments throughout the book make it very sarcastic. The best kind of humour! Recommend!
Misty has returned to Australia and gets sent to a town which has ghosts. However, Misty can’t sense any. Since her visit to England, Misty seems to sense ghosts everywhere. While investigating the town, she receives a message asking her to solve a century-old murder. Will she be able to solve this murder and who wants her to do this?
I enjoyed this book and look forward to see where Misty goes in the future.
